Watch St. Vincent On Colbert

St. Vincent on Colbert

When she and David Byrne teamed up to release Love This Giant in 2012, St. Vincent showed up on The Colbert Report. A couple of weeks ago, St. Vincent made an appearance on the new Comedy Central game show @Midnight. But Annie Clark, you will be relieved to know, is not moving backwards in the Comedy Central late-night rankings. Last night, she was the guest on The Colbert Report, where she used the word “techno-shamanism” without any evident irony, and where Colbert got in a truly great hair joke. Clark is always an absolutely charming interview subject, and during the interview, she somehow came across as both pretentious and unpretentious at the same time. A difficult feat! She also icily knocked out two songs from her new self-titled album: “Digital Witness” and, as an online bonus, “Birth In Reverse.” Watch the interview and both performances below.

St. Vincent is out now on Republic/Loma Vista.
